I installed debian sarge on a P4 with a SATA drive. I had to type"linux26" at the install boot prompt to install the 2.6 kernel insteadof the default 2.4. After that, everything worked fine.

  Hi,

I have just bought a PC with the following configuration:

Intel P4 GHz
Intel D915GAV Motherboard
Seagate Barracuda HDD (80 GB)
Samsung 510N Monitor (TFT)
Transcend 512 MB RAM
Sony CRX 320E combo drive
Please advise as to the suitability of installing debian on the aboveconfiguration. I have heard about compatibility of Linux with SATAHdd. Is this an issue, I should be worried about ?
bye
Abhishek
